Which one is better?

Hi I am looking for a Laptop under 500€ for a friend of mine. She wants to use Photoshop, (Microsoft Office) and play occasionally some Sims4.

 

Which one is better?

Neither

 

Honestly, for this kind of budget I would rather go used

I would go with the first one. You get a 1TB hard drive, a more powerful processor, and much better graphics, the Vega 8 is much better than Intel Integrated. @GeneXiS_X does have a point however. Laptops don't evolve that quickly, and for around this price you can get some really good laptops used with i7's and better screens. The main potential problem with buying used is battery performance.

Buy a new battery

That's fine for us nerds, but not as good for the average consumer. Most people are terrified to open their laptop chassis. The only normal people I know who replace their battery have the quick release kind, and even those "normal people" are engineers.
